Question 1168613: You must estimate the mean temperature (in degrees Fahrenheit) with the following sample temperatures:
42.4
66.6
89
62.3
41.4
65.8
Find the 98% confidence interval. Enter your answer as an open-interval (i.e., parentheses) accurate to two decimal places (because the sample data are reported accurate to one decimal place).

mean is 61.25 deg F.
s=17.72 deg F.
half-interval is t (0.99,df=5)*s/sqrtn(n)
=3.365*17.72/sqrt(6)
=24.34 deg F.
(36.91, 85.59) deg F.
